In present-day Northern Mexico, the Galván family returns to reclaim their pecan orchard after matriarch Maité has squandered the family’s money. Tragically, the land they once knew has slowly been taken over by a drug war. This modern adaptation of Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard explores the complex relationships among a mother and her daughters as four women face the challenges of a dangerous and rapidly changing environment.
